Abstract: Applications of two kinds of capital allocation principles were studied: one was axiomatic allocation which had been known, and the other was generalized weighted allocation. Firstly, several known risk measures were listed. Based on a axiomatic method, allocation formulae with respect to these risk measures were given. Then in view of a specific numerical model, its allocation results were calculated. Secondly, generalized weighted allocation, which was an extension of weighted allocation, was considered. A method for comparing the amounts of generalized weighted capital allocations under two different aggregate losses, which stems from diversifying property, was mainly discussed. And some special examples were given.
